Qualifying for CEC

[Synopsis]

@scylla @canuck78
Hey, I had a question about qualifying for CEC. In order to qualify for CEC, we need one year of work experience. For that one year, can we have multiple NOCs with multiple companies? For instance I have completed 5 months in NOC B 2282 and 7 months in NOC A 2174.
Would this qualify me for CEC?
If so, what would I put as my qualifying NOC?
Also, have you heard of any cases where having multiple NOC in the first year had been problematic?
I have noticed that the IRCC CEC policy is a bit vague in this matter. Am I missing something? Have they outlined this matter clearly somewhere?
I would really appreciate your opinion in this matter.

Hey there. I have found a couple of threads where someone asked this same question:

• https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/noc-a-b-experience-in-one-year.646457/#post-8097751
• https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/primary-noc-for-cec-among-two-which-one-to-choose.690065/#post-8656799

It looks like the consensus is that you should still qualify for CEC. Although I can't vouch for these answers myself as I am not an expert on this. I agree that IRCC are unclear about this particular situation.

For CEC you can have multiple NOCs and multiple companies as long as all of the NOCs are A, B or 0 skill level. You need to have at least 52 separate weeks where you worked 30 hours (or more).

I'm sure there are links on the IRCC site somewhere but I don't have them handy.

Even in the first year? I would love to see these links. And the primary or qualifying NOC is just the one with the most experience?

Your work experience can be in 1 or more NOC 0, A or B jobs.
